Ham Radio Operator : local heavy heroes layering loops and other noises together for an audio joyride through experimentation.

Yoshiko Ohara: Japanese painter Yoshiko Ohara is the vocalist of Bloody
Panda, a New York City doom act who share a drummer with Krallice and
whose last album came out on Profound Lore Records. Beyond any
run-of-the-mill band, Bloody Panda combine funeral doom with elements of
arcane world music (gamelan, tabla, etc), urban grit (Swans-level intensity), and theater (the band often perform in executioners' hoods).

Yoshiko Ohara's first solo album, Ringing in Our Wrists, was released
in April this year on Ice Level Music, the label founded by Kayo Dot
frontman/composer Toby Driver. Her new solo performances are ultra
intense one-woman shows, often with visual projections. She's a
powerhouse and one of a kind.
